Student Stories

What do you like most about the Ostrow School?

“My favorite aspect of the Ostrow School is the community and Trojan Family feel within the school. Among my extremely diverse class there is a sense of camaraderie and unity. After many challenging weeks and long nights, we continue to grow closer and depend on each other. The same can be said about upperclassmen and faculty across the school. Although they’re busy, they’re more than willing to provide help, insight and advice. At USC the students and their personal growth are truly put first.”

Nehi Ogbevoen,
President, DDS Class of 2015
